There are a number of guns that become collectable for a number of reasons. These will be. The same goes for S&Ws and Colts. |

Legit Milsurps are becoming rarer and rarer everyday. Uncle Sam sends all their Fed LE guns to captain crunch. The majority of weapons in the US military are not and never will be legal for civilian sales. I doubt we'll see Beretta M9s and Mossbergs sold through the CMP. The majority of state's NGs use Federally funded arms.
These are legit military purchased arms, used by military units, with provenance of being deployed to Katrina and other documented events, that have bee surplused and sold to the civilian market. Plus they are in a configuration that has a great appeal with accessories that are not exactly common. Will these become priced like 100% conditioned WWI Trench Guns? Nope. But they will raise in price and value as time marches on. |

Is Gunwritr doing an article on these? Another thing folks need to remember. '97 Trench Guns didn't magically spike in price overnight. They've had decades to slowly rise in price. When they were available they sold cheap like other surplus. Also remember, there are 1,200 of these. I bet 300+ will get modified. It will happen. People will say, it's just an 870 and its too muzzle heavy, off with this or that. I bet a large number are modified within 30 days. Lots of people who bought them don't care about them being collectible. I had a friend once who wanted a Mosin rifle, so I gave him an original M1891 (not a common 91/30) with Finnish markings. He promptly chopped it... 
More will end up in the back of a pick-up or used as a beater shotgun. And their condition will go out the window. It's just how life is. |

To those counting being used used stateside as a disqualifier for collectability- I suppose anything used in the Civil war, Little Big Horn, Wounded Knee or by Babyface Nelson, Clyde Barrow or Dillinger are disqualified too.
